• Why Diets Fail and What Obesity Really Is
    Feb 5 2026

    If obesity were simply about eating less and exercising more, it would have been solved decades ago.
    It hasn’t — and that failure isn’t personal.

    In this opening episode of Hacking the Obesity Code, we challenge the most persistent myths around weight loss and explain why obesity is best understood as a metabolic and hormonal condition, not a problem of willpower or discipline.

    You’ll learn:

    • Why calorie counting fails in the real world
    • Why most people regain weight after dieting
    • How hormones and metabolic signaling drive fat storage
    • Why blaming individuals has never worked
    • What this podcast will do differently from mainstream advice

    This episode sets the foundation for the entire series.
    No shame. No motivation talk. No diet culture.
    Just biology, systems thinking, and evidence.
